I have been having my cars serviced by Auto Nation after
I have been having my cars serviced by Auto Nation after buying them from Auto Nation. I have been so happy with the trusted service I receive here that I have purchased 3 Jeeps from them over the last 24 years.
Bought my '12 Max SV (my 3rd one btw) Jan 2013.
Bought my '12 Max SV (my 3rd one btw) Jan 2013. 1 of 2 left on lot. MSRP 38 G. Pd 28G out the door. Now with 86000 miles. Only tires, oil changes and rear brakes. NO problems at all with a plus on performance. Best car I've ever had and my 1985 and 1993 were great cars too. May end up being the last car I have to buy. Always garaged and above average in and out and Edmunds says it's worth $3700. Hoping would be 5G at least.

Had a great experience at JDM!
Had a great experience at JDM! I initally thought the prices were a bit high, but once Jasper explained all the services and work that had already been done on the car, I felt much more confident in the value he was super helpful, patient, and made the car buying process smooth and stress-free. Rose in finance was also amazing and helped me get into a car. Highly recommend JDM if you're looking for great service and a team that really cares!
This is a great car.
This is a great car. Good on gas. Need for speed.lol. it has the space you need for the inside definently leg room and trunk space. If you keep up the maintenance on it you good. There is one thing that's a continued problem that I had was the power steering pump it seems like it was a common problem every year that I had the car and obviously nissan knew it but they never did a recall on it and I kept checking.

Excellent car , excellent value & a terrific helpful crew
Excellent car , excellent value & a terrific helpful crew at the dealership . I will definitely recommend them to my staff.
Bought my Maxima new and just about to hit 190k.
Bought my Maxima new and just about to hit 190k. It has only needed tires, brakes and oil changes. Everything still works but it is showing its age. My only complaint is the rear window defroster started bubbling about 20k ago. It is an SV with performance suspension, it’s fast and fun to drive. Good solid transportation and the body style has head up given its 12 years old

Maxima is well worth your time
I give the Maxima SV a 4.9 due to the near-sighted placement of the outlets to charge my phone. However, the 2012 Nissan Maxima SV is one fine ride. I have owned 30+ vehicles since '76, including top of the line sport models from GM, Ford, Chrysler. I owned a Datsun 240Z in the early 80's & purchased my 2012 Maxima SV ("Maximus") in 2017 with the memories of driving that Datsun foremost in my mind. I am proof little old ladies can have fun, because driving THIS car is so much fun! I am retired, & use my car for the usual; shopping, visiting with friends, etc. I live in a very rural part of Appalachia & regularly must drive 30+ miles to reach a Supercenter type store on curves, up & down hills that can intimidate the best drivers. "Maximus" laughs in the face of triple switch-backs on an average 8% grade. Plus, the Bose sound system, with 'Music Box' (records & stores every CD played) ensures I'm driving to my favorite music. The paddle-shifting, powerful acceleration, & extreme comfort of the Maxima makes it my favorite so far. If not for the unfortunate engineering that placed the outlet too close to the cup holder for my liking, I would score the Maxima SV a cool 5 ☆'s!!!

Waited over a year to buy my car because every dealership
Waited over a year to buy my car because every dealership I went to I got bad vibes. I decided to give worlds best auto a chance and I am very happy with my decision. I financed my vehicle and they were able to get me a really good rate for the financing, they also sold me a great car. I will be telling my friends and family about my experience.
